The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Best carvery I've had. Such a good choice including pigs in blanket, stuffing balls (not frozen ones) roast parsnips, broccoli and cauliflower cheese. Lots of veg. Meat was lovel too. Only problem was so much choice we could not fit everything on the plate. Not a bad problem to have. Will be definitely be back

Wonderful dining Experience. I had the duck pie with roasted vegetables and it was delicious. I had booked a room there and arrived late but Staff were great and found me a table. I loved the meal, it was refreshingly different and I was sorry I wasn't staying longer so that I could try more of their dishes.

The food here is absolutely delicious, and the prices reasonable for the quality. The service was excellent and it felt like you were part of a community, even if it was your first time stepping foot in there. Furthermore, the food was deliviered in a decent time frame. My nan absolutely loved this place, it was somewhere we'd take her frequently, and she'd never leave there hungry, only wanting to return.

Always food food and great atmosphere

We ate in, you can’t order from the restaurant though. We walked round the front to order. When the food came the 2 chip butties were served on 1 plate instead of a plate each. There were roughly 6 chips in each bread bun. We asked where the rest of the food was and were told if we wanted more chips to go back round the front to order.

Brilliant pub with excellent staff and wonderful food. Strongly recommend the steak pie with a pint of Timothy Taylor’s Landlord.

This place is a gem, it's Sunday menu was amazing, I would 100% recommend

Always very pleasant staff, great food! Never a fault

After a day's diving at Stoney Cove, we had to find somewhere to eat for 8 of us. (our hotel had let us down. So me and Craig dropped by at 6pm and asked about availability for 8. The lovely lady who met us was struggling to accommodate us, BUT, bent over backwards (figuratively) moving tables around and seated us at 8pm. We REALLY appreciated that. Most of us had the chef-recommended rump steaks which were gorgeously tasty. We had great service, great banter and great food in this lovely pub. All the staff were friendly, especially the lady (I wish I knew your name - sorry!) who accommodated us, brought our drinks, took our photo, etc. Thank-you!

Customer service was amazing! The food was one of the best If not the best meal I’ve had. Great music choice in the American diner too, great atmosphere. Kim was awesome. Felt very welcomed.

Staying in Lincoln. From Dartmouth in South Devon. Heard about the sign of the fish so had to try them. Best fish and chips I've tasted both fish( light crispy batter) and chips 1st class. Far better than posh fish & chips shops in South Devon. What a fantastic price. Quality products. Well done to the staff who served me with a smile. I will return

Only had a breakfast but lovely food and great staff

This was our first visit. I reserved a 3hr slot as we were meeting family for Christmas. A family member ordered the pulled pork burger, she is not a fussy eater but what was served looked like dog food. The pulled pork had disintegrated. I tried some and the texture was not nice. Coated in a very large amount of bbq sauce. Not what you expect when you order pulled pork, you expect the nice shredded pieces of pork. This was mush. I raised this with the waitress and they said they can cook a plain one as there is a issue with there pulled pork, but the waitress said she would need to charge me for the new burger. This is the first time I've come across this. If your food is not up to standard and doesn't taste nice is is rude to charge them for something they haven't eaten. I went ahead and got charged with it as it was more important at the time to enjoy our family time and make it memorable than to be arguing with the waitress over extra charges. When the new burger was brought out the burger itself was stone cold, to the point where the cheese slice wasn't even melted so it had clearly been sitting around in the kitchen for a bit before serving it. Which I don't understand why as they were not busy there was only 1 other table dining at that time with 4 people on. My family member decided to eat it but diddnt enjoy it and left most of it. About an hour and a half into our booking the waitress comes to our table and said I've rung your bill up you can pay at the bar. Which made some of my family feel like they wanted us to leave even though I had booked the table for 3hrs. Overall decor is nice. But the food is awful. Dry cold burgers and pulled pork mushy and customer service bad, charging us for a new burger when there food is not up to standard.

Great village pub Good food good beer Great people

Great find right on our doorstep! Food was amazing 🤩, good selection of drinks and a lovely menu of Turkish / Mediterranean foods. Very reasonably priced and service was spot on! Will definitely be returning again 👍
